I’ve got to get this book. A history of states that might have been.

Officials worry anger at D.C. is behind low Texas census response | Houston & Texas News | Chron.com – Houston Chronicle
Lesson One in how to make your race irrelevant. First you get all up in a huff because the nation elected a black man as president. Then you reject filling out the census. This makes your regions less represented in the nation’s politics – hopefully losing Congressional seats as well as not gaining all the ones you are entitled to – and diverting funds from your communities, making them more backwards and obsolete than just your thought patterns.
Add to this the very successful campaign to get Latinos registered and thus overrepresented (thanks to your racist asses) and ta-da! now you don’t count as much.
Quicker.
